\"\"<\/a>This was reported by Andy Staples last week<\/a>, but somehow we missed the fact that Georgia State has resorted to essentially paying people to come watch its football team. That’s right. The same program that decided to move “up” to the Sunbelt before ever playing a down of CAA football has resorted to literally dropping money from the rafters in an effort to get people to come to games. I’d say I have no idea how we missed this, but the truth is I know exactly how we missed this. We missed it because like the majority of other people in the country we’re not paying any attention to Georgia State football. You can see pictures of the cash drop over at Larry Brown Sports<\/a>. And for the record the promotion drew in a whopping 9,531 fans who got to see New Hampshire beat the Panthers 44-21.<\/p>\n
